The term pattu sarees refers to silk sarees produced in the town of Kanjeevaram. These sarees are a staple in South Indian weddings, with everyone from the guests to the brides wearing some version of the same. These sarees are woven with gold zari work, which is why they often have an inherent sheen to the fabric. As a result, even plain pattu sarees can look immensely glamorous and heavy.

As brides are expected to be the best-dressed at any wedding function, you should explore the idea of wearing the latest pattu sarees designs to at least one of the events, if not the wedding itself. Whether you are a South Indian bride who wants to pay homage to her heritage, or a North Indian bride looking to emulate a royal ensemble, these latest pattu sarees designs should definitely feature in your bridal collection-

1. Sunshine yellow sarees

Often, one tends to picture bright, warm colours when one thinks of the latest pattu sarees designs. Therefore, when you are out shopping for the same, do check out a few yellow and red options if you can. These classic sarees give off an extremely happy vibe, which is what makes them ideal for brides on their wedding or Mehndi day.

2. The bridal reds!

While you’re looking for the latest pattu sarees designs, don’t forget that red is almost a mandate when it comes to bridal wear. This auspicious colour signifies marriage and passion, which is why most women wear it on their wedding days. Pick a red saree with gorgeous gold patterns all over for a great look. Accessorise the same with heavy temple jewellery and you’ll definitely look lovely.

3. Kasavu Pattu sarees!

A Kasavu pattu saree is a variant of silk sarees that’s most commonly seen in Kerala. With white and gold being its most dominant colour, this saree has a very distinct look when compared to the other traditional Kanjeevaram sarees you may see.

While the traditional styling tip for this outfit is to wear temple jewellery, you can go ahead and create a very unique ensemble by pairing a heavy Kundan set with the same. The gold element of the Kundan and the white stones while work beautifully with the fabric of the Kasavu saree. If you’re looking for the latest pattu sarees designs for Kasavu sarees, pick garments with thinner borders at the sleeves and pallus.

4. Maroon hues for the wedding!

The latest pattu sarees designs come with dual-toned fabrics, like this saree with purple and maroon tones. Unlike most of the other sarees in this list, this one has a silver sheen (instead of a gold one), and if you do pick a saree with a similar look, then it makes more sense to pair it with silver jewellery instead of gold pieces.

Of course, as a bride, you may feel that silver doesn’t really work for your wedding look and if that’s the case, you can always wear such latest pattu sarees designs for a lighter event like the Cocktail party, where you can get away with pairing more contemporary jewellery pieces.

One of the design elements that really set Kanjeevaram silk sarees apart is the fact that contrasting colours often make up the ensemble.
